Satin evening cape, c.1930
One-of-a-kind vintage accessories add a personal touch to contemporary fashion. Every eye will be on you when you make a dramatic entrance in this unique Hollywood-style cape.
The cape is fashioned from champagne colored silk satin and is totally lined with the same. The fabric is weighted and draped to form an exquisite soft sculpture. I love the smocked shoulders and braided neckline trim.
The cape closes at the neckline with a loop and self-covered button; the neckline ties are decorative only. They can be left hanging straight in front or thrown over the shoulder. Here is a magnificent statement in understated luxury. The decoration is minimal, allowing full attention to the superb fabric.
The cape has the name tag of the original owner, Catherine Ann Currie, as well as the "Siegel/Detroit" store label—see the bottom pictures.
The condition is excellent.
One size fits all. The cape measures 17" from shoulder seam to shoulder seam and 39" center-back length.
